on the phone to his relative, complaining about police and claimed to be falsely accused.
On the 29th of October Formulation meeting was held:
Care coordinator ‘s feedback: This is only the second time meeting Simon. There have been
issues with reports he is assaulting other residents in his council accommodation.
Nursing report: He appears paranoid on the ward.
Interview with patient:
Mr Cordell appeared very agitated and vocal and was keen to put across his opinion that he
had been illegally detained.
Mr Cordell reports issues with police actions in regards to not giving him the ASBO folder
properly - this was left outside instead of giving it to him directly. Mr Cordell continued to
explain other problems with the police’s treatment of him. This includes the metropolitan
police having placed a photo of Mr Cordell in a folder in regards to a party he had no
involvement with. He denies being involved in any of the parties mentioned in the ASBO. Mr
Cordell spoke at length about the injustices surrounding his placement on curfew and the
ASBO order.
He describes how on multiple times doctors have tried to assess him under the MHA and he
has explained to them at each time the situation with the police. He was once placed under
a section 2 and was able to appeal his section.
Mr Cordell reports the neighbours (72 floors up) trying to deliberately disturb him by making
a lot of noise and flushing the toilet multiple times. He feels they want him to get distressed
and go upstairs to address them. They have been doing this over the last 4 years and are
doing this throughout the day. From Mr Cordell’s flat you can even hear them talking - there
is apparently very poor sound proofing.
Mr Cordell has described a council official as having forged statements and falsely accusing
him of threatening his life. Mr Cordell reports that he is being assaulted by his neighbours as
is his partner’s small child. He feels the stress from this situation may have been linked to
his partner’s miscarriage. Mr Cordell denies any acts of antisocial behaviour, even in
retaliation. At every point where he approaches the upstairs neighbours, he states he calls
the police to ask then to "protect” him.
In regards to the recent arrest he reports the police attended due to a fraudulent call from
the neighbours. The police tried to hand him a breach of harassment order which Mr Cordell
ripped and spat on the paper. The police officer then yelled that he had spat on her. He was
then arrested for assault to a police officer. This charge was dropped in the police station
and he was referred for a MHA.
Mr Cordell is currently on benefits. He reports the expensive hardware he owns (e.g. 70000-
pound bookmaker) he buys broken and second hand cheaply and fixes them. Mr Cordell
works from home. He built a new model constitution - a community interest company which
was a charity farm.
Collateral information:
His mother and uncle would like mental health service to stop referring to Mr Cordell
reporting the police as being prejudice against him as delusional - they believe this can be
proved (showing
